Here is the scenario.....
Warmed up the engine... i.e 10+ mins driving etc... and then get on a nice big motorway or Dual-carriageway.
Get the Delica up to 70mph (mine will go faster - 85mph seems okay & I don't really need to find out if it goes that much faster - damn I sound like my dad!) Once up at cruising speed I am not sure if I can feel a very slight "judder" or perhaps a "mis-fire". I am not talking steering wobbles, but I can't rule out perhaps ageing suspension at higher speeds causing the "feeling" I get.
As you can see pretty hard to explain what I mean - the engine basically feels like it might be a little too lumpy at higher speeds.
I have driven Cambridge to Leeds and back again in one day and it coped admirably.
Am I just not used to the big wheels and aerodynamics of a barn door?

I think I've experienced this aswell, but only, I've found, when there seems to be a wind blowing. I've put it down to buffeting (high sides, slab type front etc) from the wind as it doesn't do it all the time!!!
